Sipping on some cocoa right now.. Perfect for the weather. It's rare I go a day without having both green tea and cocoa. Chai, rooibois, oolong, black, are all wonderful too. Coffee's nice, but not often because it makes me too ing tweaked, unsweetened with cream.
What are your favourite hot drinks? Recommendations? Also, anyone tried that 'mate' stuff? My local health store carries it and I've been eyeballing it. |

Yup. I used to experiment with fruit infusions too, but I couldn't get a taste for them. |

As a Russian, strong black tea is a staple drink for me (pretty much after every meal at home). A nice bright Ceylon blend is perfect. At places that only serve commercial bag tea I order an earl grey, cos you pretty much can't go wrong with it (never order the english breakfast cos 9/10 times it's only good with milk - which is a travesty).
During uni or work I drink a crapload of coffee. Usually short machiato or occasionally an espresso shot.
But lately I've been drinking lots of green teas. Jasmine scented Chinese green teas and Japanese Genmaicha are probably my favourite from the green teas at the moment.
edit: Oh yeah and a nice homemade chai masala with plenty of leatherwood honey is fantastic before bed. |

| Cocoa or tea. If you want alcoholic drinks then cocoa + mint (or raspberry liquer) + whipped cream, or Irish Coffee. |
